A fundraising trip for the Sami project of TARGET e.V.: Chris paddled down the Rhine from Cologne towards the North Sea with minimal gear, a tarp and hardly any sleep. Headwind, rain, night paddling and lack of sleep pushed him to his limits.
In the end it was 298 kilometres in 90 hours. In the wrap-up video Chris talks about what went well, what went wrong and how much money was raised.
